1. cleanse

Start With a Pre-Shampoo Treatment

start adding pre shampoo essentials in your hair care routine. these include the usage of hydrating oils, butter, hair masks, or conditioners before shampoo. It adds moisture and smoothens the cuticles.Try this for 2-3 days in a weak After application, let it soak in for 5-15 minutes before shampooing.

Wash Your Hair with Lukewarm Water. This removes impurities from cuticles of hairthat cause frizzyness.Temperature of the water should neither be too hot nor too cold.When washing the hair, concentrate the shampoo more on the scalp than the length of your hair.

2. Condition and Detangle

Apply hair conditioner from the mid-lengths of hair down to the ends. Do not apply conditioner to the scalp or roots. Let it soak in for 2-3 minutes. This allows it to penetrate the hair shaft and smooth the cuticle to give the hair more “slip” for detangling.

USE WIDE TOOTH COMB FOR DETANGLING.

After conditioning, use a wide-tooth comb to gently detangle your strands, starting from the bottom and working up. The conditioner acts as a lubricant that allows the comb to glide through and untangle hair without pulling. Be sure to detangle thoroughly from tip to root.

Gently Blot Dry Hair with Microfiber Towel

After washing your hair, gently squeeze the excess water using a microfiber towelMicrofiber towel is soft and ultra-absorbent. It dries hair quickly with less friction. The soft microfibers are less likely to snag, pull, or damage hair than woven cotton fibers.

3. Moisturize

Apply a Leave In Conditioner


Apply leave-in conditioner while the hair is still damp. Leave-in conditioner provides extra hydration and can act as a foundation for other products, ensuring they spread more evenly and effectively.

Apply a Hair Serum to the Ends of Your Hair.Once the leave-in conditioner has been applied and has had a moment to absorb, you can apply the hair serum. This product can help reduce frizz, add shine, and offer some protection from heat.

4. Dry and Style

Air Drying

Air drying is recommended for individual
s with frizzy hair because it maintains moisture levels, preserves natural texture, and prevents heat damage.

However, it’s essential to know how to air dry properly. Using leave-in conditioners, anti-frizz serums, or hydrating products can enhance air drying, ensuring the hair remains moisturized and frizz is minimized.

Blow Drying

Blow drying frizzy hair requires careful techniques to achieve a smooth and frizz-free result.

First, a high-quality hair dryer with multiple heat settings and a cool shot option is necessary. Technique is also important because how you hold the hair dryer, the distance from the hair, and how you direct the airflow can make a big difference in reducing or worsening frizz.


Straightening 

Use a high-quality straightener with adjustable temperature settings. For those with fine hair, a lower temperature setting is advisable, while thicker hair may require higher heat. The key is to find a balance to straighten effectively without excessive heat. Sectioning the hair ensures even application and allows focused attention on each part, reducing the need for multiple passes with the straightener.

Night Care

Brush Hair Before Bed

Brushing hair with a boar bristle brush before bed removes tangles and distributes the scalp’s natural oils through the lengths of the hair to keep it moisturized and frizz-free overnight.

A boar bristle brush has natural flexible bristles made from boar hair. The natural flexibility of the bristles gently detangles the hair without breakage. The bristles also distribute the scalp’s oil (sebum) through the hair, laying the cuticles flat and smooth. As a result, the hair is less prone to tangles, knots, and frizz overnight.


Sleep on Silk Pillowcase

Silk pillowcase has a smooth, slippery, and non-absorbent surface, allowing the hair to glide without getting tangled. Unlike cotton pillowcases that pull and tangle the hair, silk surfaces cause less friction against hair.

With reduced friction, moisture loss, and tangles, silk results in fewer flyaways and smoother, sleeker hair in the morning.
